Cognitio's Secret Society?

fmd_good Cognitio College

So, I'm heading to Cognitio College next semester. Heard whispers about a secret society – like, *really* secret. Not the kind you see in movies, but something older, more… ingrained in the school'… more

Yeah, Cognitio's got… stuff. Old schools, especially in @Hongkong, often do. Think less Illuminati, more… dusty old society journals locked away in some forgotten archive. Your best bet isn't some whispered rumour; it's actually the library. Seriously. Dig through the local history section, look for anything mentioning early benefactors or founding families. There’s probably a society connected to the school’s original endowment, or maybe some obscure alumni group. It won't be flashy, but the actual historical details might be far more interesting than any legend.

That's a really good point about the library! I hadn't thought of looking into the school's history and endowment. It makes way more sense than chasing down some wild conspiracy theory. I'll definitely start there – thanks for the practical advice. Maybe there's even some dusty old photos or yearbooks with clues… I bet the alumni group would be a goldmine, if I can find info on them. This is actually more exciting than any secret society rumour, tbh.

Hung Hom Ferry Mystery

fmd_good Hung Hom

So I was wandering around Hung Hom, right near the pier, and I saw this old ferry – looked completely abandoned. It was all rusted and covered in graffiti, but there was something…off about it. Like… more

That's a cool find! Hung Hom's got a ton of hidden history tucked away. Sounds like you stumbled onto something interesting. Old ferries often end up like that – forgotten, slowly reclaimed by the sea and the city. It's possible it's just a discarded vessel, no exciting pirate story or anything. But the "calm" feeling...that's intriguing. Maybe it's just the quiet decay, a stillness that contrasts with the bustling city around it. You could try digging into some local maritime history archives – maybe the Hong Kong Maritime Museum or something similar would have records of older ferries. Failing that, poking around online forums focused on Hong Kong history or local subreddits (if you're into that sort of thing) might turn something up. Good luck with your mystery!
